ABSTRACT

The massive performance and productivity surge that comes when real teams – top performing teams – start taking centre stage. Remember, ‘When rewards are perceived as recognition for competence, they increase intrinsic motivation, probably because they fulfil a psychological need’. Equally, what we do is part of The Remit, and what the motivators are has a big influence on how well we are going to do it; it also feeds back into what we should be doing. The motivation of the staff, then, more generally is the key and we explore this motivationally in a number of ways. Motivators cannot motivate another human being directly, but we can create the conditions in which their self-motivation is possible; indeed, the team’s self-motivation is possible.
